If you're referring to the NAV/Receiver/Head Unit I left that out intentionally. The navs are region specific with their maps so JDM/EUDM wouldn't help, even with english. There's also nine(9) to choose from: http://toyota.jp/service/option/dc/n...ODE=86-b_00001

There are also two(2) standard CD/radio receiver/head units by the looks: http://toyota.jp/service/option/dc/a...ODE=86-b_00001

All of which are optional.

As for speakers, it gets odd:
Toyota: http://toyota.jp/86/001_p_001/navi-a...dio/index.html
GT and GT limited have 6 speakers
2x25mm tweets
2x160mm front door speakers
2x65mm rear quarter speakers

G has 2x160mm front door speakers only

RC has no speakers



Scion FR-S, both Canadian and American websites claim 8 speakers but do not display the locations.

The Canadian site has this description: "Immerse yourself in the ultimate audio experience. FR-S features eight precisely positioned speakers, including tweeters, instrument panel speakers, a woofer in each door and rear quarter speakers. The front and rear speakers are mounted high, creating a powerful, unified sound. Tweak your audio settings to customize your music to exactly the way you like it."

So it sounds like the GT/GT Limited setup, with 2 extra speakers squeezed in:
2x25mm tweets
2x160mm front door speakers
2x65mm rear quarter speakers
2x??mm instrument panel speakers

I'm not sure where these "instrument panel" speakers are or if they counted the tweets twice or something but it sounds like the FR-S actually has a one up on speaker count to the Toyota.

Checking Subaru Canada and USA, their sites list the BRZ as having 8 speakers, it seems Scion nabbed Subaru's speakers. Sadly they don't list where they are or their sizes either. Subaru Japan's site, well the way they did it auto-translators don't work so, I can't find my way around easily and I couldn't read about the system if I could find the right page. There were no nice charts like Toyota.jp has either.
